Form & Verdict
0-10 but put up one of his better efforts when runner-up over C&D (good) last September; probably needed the run when well held over 1m here on his reappearance last month and he could be dangerous back in trip; reapplied blinkers replace cheekpieces.

Gained four of his five wins at this track (two over 7f) but has largely been disappointing over the last couple of year and hopes of him adding to his tally are beginning to fade.

Stamina issues over hurdles and happier back on the Flat when coming away with Voodoo Bay over C&D a week ago; is 5lb better off today, which gives her every chance of turning things round for a yard in good nick, but she's 0-17 under both codes.

Both wins have been gained at this track (6f/7f, good to firm) and he made a bold bid when runner-up here two weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off 1lb lower than for last success and she's a key player.
